We have one copy for demo purposes, running under UMAX V (it is compiled
under UMAX 4.2, but since UMAX V is binary compatible with UMAX 4.2...).
One of our customers is also running SPSS-X on their MM510 with UMAX V.

Support? What support?

>Are we the only ones using it??

Definitely not. We even offered SPSS to port their latest & greatest
version to the Multimax, but they didn't seem to be all that interested.

I know that there's some Multimax site in Malaysia using SPSS-X as well
as one or a few sites in Australia.
